    Comey is a traitor who should rot in prison for the rest of his life.

    This was actually a very interesting video. Shame it’s just getting spammed by Billie Eilish fans instead.

    Well just done with this video and this channel

      Why?

      @Alex Diaz well it’s my opinion but I think he really is roasting president’s and doing that whether you like him or not,its in bad taste he’s doing that to a sitting president. That’s all.

    @37:24 that’s actually inaccurate. Kenneth O’Donnell (Kevin Costner) was a real person and a close friend of John F. Kennedy who did advise him during the Cuban Missile Crisis.

    I don’t know what what they paid Brendan Gleeson to get inside 45’s head, but it wasn’t enough, and not just because he did a great job but because he had to get inside 45’s head. The very idea is enough to turn your stomach.

    Loved the content. The quick cuts for just one word were overdone & irritating.

    This dork is clearly a liberal. Vanity Fair is trying really hard in its own way to influence opinion and show they are against Trump, and its transparent and lame.

      Find me one expert in anything that supports Trump and I’ll find for you, THREE liars.

      Mate just about anybody with a tiny bit of higher learning and knowledge is against Trump. Litterally just uneducated hicks that support Trump. That’s you buddy.

    He should have included Oliver Stone’s Nixon.

    Bruce Greenwood, the only actor most known for playing the president, to the point that Matthew Vaughn trolled us in Kingsman: Golden Circle by casting Greenwood as an evil caricature of an anti-drug Republican willing to let millions die so he could say he won the War on Drugs.

    Wow, that’s a horrible portrayal of Bill Clinton.
